Jevon Jevon
With a mega malleable voice and diverse production that references J Hus, Kanye, Drake and more; 24-year-old singer, rapper and producer Jevon is bang on the money. You might not have heard of him, but you've probably heard him. You see, his productions can be found across Nines' One Foot Out album and XL's 2017 New Gen compilation, a showcase of the future of UK rap, grime and R&B — naturally featuring Jevon's own breakout single, Man Of The Hour.
Stepping out of the studio and into the spotlight, his work spans pop, hip-hop and slinky R&B on what we've heard so far of his debut EP, Judas, due this autumn. Adding yet another layer to proceedings, he packed up and relocated to his grandfather's homeland of Brazil this summer to finish the whole thing off. Stand-out tracks include soulful Redemption, the just-dropped Wagwarn, and Paranoia. The latter is a dark confessional that Jevon says "stems from layers of paranoia and the chain reaction that can cause. Paranoia in a relationship; attempting to ease that stress with smoking, which just adds another layer of paranoia."
